PLEASE COMMENT BACK!! :)

i dont do 'links'

Read your Jung, Freud (even a broken clock is right twice a day) and Campbell, then sit down and think. Also, think about what scares you and what would happen if somebody you wouldn't even think of hurting hurt you.

Nothing at all....

Horror movies are horror movies. If the character is scary, it's scary. Doesn't matter if it's a man, woman, child or anything in between.
